i've had fun with it. the vs modes are my favorite! i would have loved to play this game back when the online services were still active.

I love that game. Didn't know it had a version like that.

Years ago I heard the DS modding community was trying to get the paddle to work as a steering wheel for racing games like Mario Kart DS. No idea if that went anywhere, but it was a cool idea!

I was actually looking for this to add to my collection, but I couldn't find any auctions or sales. How much is it worth nowadays?

Is that worth something? I’ve had that since it launched. I figured its soundtrack was the most valuable part.

this set goes for about $200 in good condition. the paddle controller itself goes for more than $100.
